Issues with a preferences in acrobat 9 pro

Hi.
I'll try to explain my problem.
1. I'm not English. I'm Spanish. English isn't my language .
2. I use Acrobat 9 pro with a Microsoft xp professional x64. I use for a create pdf of Autocad 2009. And when I try to changes the preference to convert to pdf in autodesk autocad the program swift off. Only with this preference, with all rest it's all right.
I'll hope you understand my problem and my post.
Thanks for all.

It's now been almost 4 months since I encountered this "issue".  Some extra information would be that, when I first posted this topic, I was using a "free" (read between the lines) version of Acrobat 8 Pro.  SInce that time, I have actually purchsed Acrobat 9 Pro and still have the problem with my program shutting down when trying to select the Preferences link.  What gives?  What would cause this.  And before someone else says, try repairing the software, I have done that as well as making sure there are no updates available.
As an aside, I am another one that is disgusted with Adobe for not making the one click PDF Creator funcional in Office 2010.

  • Issues with Office 2010 and Acrobat Pro 8

    Good Day All;
    We are in the middle of upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 with Office 2010 and I was wondering if there are any issues with importing Office documents into Acrobat Pro 8. I have found out that there are a couple of issue with Office 201 and LifeCycle Designer.
    Any comments would be helpful

    Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Microsoft Office 2010 and the PDFMaker plugins will not install. Only Acrobat X is compatible with Office 2010, and at this time only in 32-bit mode.
    Acrobat 8 is also not officially compatible with Windows 7, again Acrobat X is the first version to carry approval for that OS. It will still install, but Adobe cannot guarantee it will operate perfectly in all cases, and doesn't provide install support for that combination.

  • I am having issues with installation of Abobe Acrobat Pro XI and Adobe Flash CC 2014

    I am using Windows 8 system.  I have attempted to remove any pervious versions that may cause the installation to fail.  I have tried to install from Creative Cloud several times but it keeps telling me installation failed.  I have tried rebooting system and still get the same errors.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Having start-up issues with my 1st gen Macbook Pro

    Hi everyone. I just started having start-up issues with my first generation Macbook Pro. It was working fine the other day when I last used it, but today I went to use it and it wont load up to my desktop...? It starts up (grey screen with the little swirly bar under the apple,) then it goes to a blue screen, then my background and dock appear, then (before any of my desktop files even show up,) it goes to a blue screen (that brightens up and then dims a little,) and it just keeps showing this with a little swirly progress symbol (shows when the screen is darker blue, then disappears when the screen is a brighter blue.) I've included a video that I took with my iPhone to show it situation. Any ideas as to what's wrong with it? Thanks in advance!

    Safe Boot by restarting your computer while holding down the "shift" key.  Safe booting disables all nonessential processes, often times allowing you to start up when you would otherwise crash.
    As of OS X 10.5.6 Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache location in the /var/db/dyld directory.  A corrupt cache here can cause the blue screen crash.  Once you restart normally, the cache will be recreated.  This should take care of the issue.

  • Mac mini having issues with system preferences retaining settings

    Mac mini having issues with system preferences retaining settings; this was present with Mavericks and now Yosemite after installation.  Did try removing com.apple.systemprefs.plist file (library/preferences folder) to trash, but couldn't find it in trash in order to empty it.  Upon reboot the file is still missing.  Please don't suggest reloading Yosemite, have very slow internet connection, Yosemite took 7-8 hours to D/L.
    Any troubleshooting suggestions out there?  thanks

    No problem, we were all new to everything once, do let us know if you need more help or clatification.

  • Issues with images in Portfolio (Acrobat X Pro)

    Hi all,
    I am having an issue with my portfolio file in Acrobat X Pro. I insert images from my hard drive, then proceed to give them display names and tags. This works fine, but then the next time I open the file, some of the pictures have become broken links. For those, the filename has been changed to the same as display name, even though I did not make that change. Once this happens, I seem to be left with no other choice than to reinsert the image and retag it and hope it doesn't happen again.
    Has anyone else run into this issue? Is there a way to prevent this from happening? Thanks.

    Java is a different animal than JavaScript.
    PDFs use JavaScript and not the Java programing language.
    As mentioned the apps on the iPxd, iPhone and android devices do not show the bookmark panel. The user needs to open the option that looks like an outline and the bookmarks appear like a table of contents for a book.
    The show pages and bookmarks only works for full computer, laptops, and netbooks with the Acrobat or Reader programs or similar programs, not apps for tablets and phones.
    Do you have a smart phone or tablet to test your PDFs on?

  • PDFs open with reader instead of Acrobat Pro

    OS: WinXP
    A/Reader version: 9.3.4
    A/Acrobat Pro version: 7
    Issue:
    PDFs open in the Reader and not in Acrobat Pro.  I changed the File Association to open them with Acrobat Pro and it works fine for the rest of the day, but when I log in the next day it reverts back to opening in A/Reader again.  This is an issue because of the way we have to access the PDFs at work, from within IE on a server.
    Someone at work thought there might be a registry hack needed to fix this.  I have looked at the registry entries for Reader and Pro, but there's nothing obvious to me.
    One other thing that I have not tried as yet is to log in as Administrator and select (tick) the "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" option.  Maybe it might seem obvious that this is what's needed, but it was working fine prior to last week.  The tick is greyed out when logged in as a 'normal' user, but the tick is on too.
    I guess someone will suggest I do this anyway and see if it resolves the problem, before looking at the registry.  :-)
    Many thanks in advance for all suggestions.

    Mostly you will get the suggestion to remove one or the other from your system and repair or reinstall the remaining application. It is not a recommended or supported configuration having both.
    Another suggestion is to reinstall Acrobat Pro. That works for about 4 out of 10 people.

  • What do I do with out of date Acrobat Pro? Keep using it or uninstall it?

    I need to update my Acrobat Pro 9.5.3 for use with my CS5 Creative Suite. Are you saying it is no longer possible? Then how do I stop that darn Acrobat Update Installer from popping up all the time? Should I be worried about not upgrading (spending more money) when I am running Yosemite 10.10.2 on my iMac?

    Hi Deboah,
    You can download and install the updates for Acrobat 9 from: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/9.x/
    Acrobat 9 has not been tested on Mac Yosemite and you might face compatibility issues with it.

  • How do I create the highest quality pdfs with InDesign CS5 and Acrobat Pro 9?  New settings needed?

    I sent a lot of jobs to printing companies by sending them high-res proofs on very large, multiple page jobs with lots of photos and graphics.  Many companies are requesting that I just send pdfs.  I just upgraded to Windows 7 and CS5.  I used to have some special settings in my older Acrobat Distiller  and InDesign which have been lost.  They gave a much better result that what I seem to be getting from the "Press Quality" setting for pdf's.  Does anyone have an excellent list of settings that can used to improve the quality of pdf's?  I don't know if this is a combination of settings in both InDesign itself, as well as in Acrobat Distiller, or if the settings in one program will solve this.  I have a job pending that needs improvement in the pdf quality.  Thank you.

    Thanks Peter.  My last post was specific to using the Print Booklet feature (which is now solved thanks to your help).  But this is related to creating high-res pdfs in general that go to printing companies, and being used for sending high-res proofs to clients.  In general I don't need to set up printer spreads for my jobs (just for the one I asked about in my other post), but I used to have some specific settings that a printing company supplied me with to give the highest res pdf output possible.  Those settings did in fact give a better result than the Press Quality settings built into my Adobe programs.  I have had printers over the years request that I create a postscript file, then use distiller (using the settings they supplied) and I got an excellent result.  After getting a new computer, Windows 7 and new CS5 and Acrobat Pro 9 upgrade, all of these settings were lost.  I have notes on the settings from a couple of years ago, but they don't seem to apply to the CS5 programs in every given area and I feel like there may be just a couple of boxes that either should or shouldn't be checked that I'm missing now.
    I understand that this is very specific information, and I may just need to go with the Press Quality settings. The printing company that gave me that great info a while back is no longer in business and other printing companies I have checked with won't spend that kind of time with me (or maybe they don't know anything other than using the Print Quality setting).   Maybe within the CS5 program now, the quality of this setting has been improved more than I realize yet.  Again, I'm new to CS5 and am just trying to get everything back to the way I used to have things running, and trying to get the best results possible.
    Thanks again!

  • Issues with exporting video from MacBook Pro to flash drive

    I cannot sucessfully transfer [export] video taken on my gopro camera, from my MacBook Pro to any flash drive and play them on other computers.  For some reason the files are not playable, even with quicktime.  They will not play with ANY of my video softwares such as divx or any AVCHD software on a windows computer.  I need to make a presentation for a club trip in a few days! Can any one please suggest what is wrong?  They play on the Mac using Flip player but not quicktime!
    Oh, and I don't have issues with transfering or exporting Jpegs or other photo formats.  Only video.
    Message was edited by: gmob25

    hmmm.. the files from GoPro are already mp4 format.  The Flash is already FAT32, brand new 16gig...
    I am new to Macs but have no problems with PC's.  I suspect that because the files are exporting as shadowed files which won't play and are very small kb files, yet they are actually in excess of 140 mb each that it might have something to do with the iphoto software?  That's where the pics and video are, they imported to there by default, not to a folder in the home folder [which is where I would have expected them to be]
    By the way, the GoPro is already in mp4 format so it is easy when transferring to computers. No need to convert. I tried converting them to see what the outcome might be, and none worked!  I tried every format I could find using Video converter ultimate software, which is excellent.
    And the problems began when quicktime wouldnt play the file, the screen was black.

  • Pdf with audio files embedded - Acrobat Pro 8 vs Acrobat Reader XI - suggestions?

    Hi, I have a problem with a pdf (containing embedded audio files) created with Acrobat Pro 8.
    So, two questions for you.
    1) When I open it with Acrobat Reader XI, the audio files won't be reproduced.
    Windows 7 and 8 tell me that there is a codec problem.
    Finding the right codec seems to be very hard (looking on the previous threads in this forum I found some links to websites offering codec packs, but when you download them it seem they start offering many other things to download, and this stresses a lot).
    Any other suggestions?
    2) The other question is kind of reverse of the first one: if I create a pdf with Acrobat XI, will an Acrobat Reader 8 or 9 be able to open it and listend to the audio files???
    Thank you,
    aliB

    Dear Pat,
    I try to write it again.
    Unfortunately installing Flash doesn't solve the problem on Windows 7 and 8 (on the XP it works).
    Kind regards

  • Echosign compatibility with Protection settings of acrobat pro

    Acrobat pro has the possibility to protect files and prevent users with access to the document to print or copie text of a document (different than a password to open a pdf file), if i want to use echosign to get aproval of the doccument it no longer possible to maintain the copy/print restriction for all non-signers users? i've been trying in different ways and when i upload a protected pdf on echosign at the end the file loses is initial proctection policies (Copy or print) and obviously if i try to protecte it once is signed its not possible

    Hi Mike,
    The protection settings such as Certificates and password provided in Acrobat Pro such as disabled content copying and printing will only applies when the PDF is opened in Adobe Reader or Acrobat. When the document is uploaded in EchoSign, the protection settings such as content copying and printing is not applicable.
    Though once the document is signed in EchoSign, a certification is provided with Adobe CDS certificate which when opened via Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader shows a visible indicator guaranteeing that the document hasn't been tampered with.
    Though EchoSign doesn’t have this feature currently, but we can forward your request to our developers team to integrate the requested feature in the future releases.

  • Issues with newer version of Acrobat Reader

    I'm not looking for advice or a fix for this problem. I'm simply posting it so that hopefully, the folks at Adobe will get a clue & take the issues with their software seriously. The real fix here is for them to quit ignoring bugs in their software and correct the code. Anyway...
    In the most recent versions of Acrobat Reader (looks like specifically to X & XI), it seems to be hit or miss as to whether Reader will open PDF attachments in Outlook email. Typically, when I double-click on a PDF attachment, nothing happens. An instance of AcroRd32.exe is created as a process (which hangs), but the PDF file doesn't open. If I make the mistake of double-clicking on the file again, another instance of AcroRd32.exe sucks up more of my system resources. This will occur for each time I double-click on the attachment. Sometimes I get lucky, and it will open the PDF file. Sometimes, if I right-click on the attachment and select open, it will do so. Most times, it just does the same thing as double-clicking.
    I've scoured the forums, searched online... Lots of people have reported this or similar problems. Solutions have been offered up, which don't work for most users. etc., etc., etc.
    It's just like the issue that Adobe has had for years with Acrobat - The software is notorious for remaining in memory as a process, long after you've closed the PDF file you opened. And likewise, for each PDF file you open, yet another instance of the software loads into & consumes memory.
    Adobe has had problems like this for years. They never have taken it seriously, they never choose to fix it.
    So, as I said in the beginning of the post - I'm not looking for a fix. I came up with my own fix - I deleted version XI, located an old copy of 9.4 & installed it.
    Nope, I'm not looking for solutions or support. I simply wanted to ***** about it.
    Doubt Adobe will even notice the post, and if they do, they'll just operate like they always have... Hope that their sloppy code just magically fixes itself.

    This is a user forum, and not the place to file bug reports to Adobe.  So you are right: your post won't be noticed by the Acrobat developers.  Nor would it give them enough information to reproduce the problem.
    P.S. I never had a problem opening Outlook attachments with Adobe Reader.  If I had, I would start by disabling Protected Mode, which is the most common cause for a multitude of problems in Adobe Reader.

  • Scanning Issue with Maverick and Office Jet Pro 8600

    Just wanted to add my voice to the numerous problem reports.  Specifically:
    1)  I could scan just fine until I upgraded to Maverick (Mac OS 10.9)
    2)  to address the problem, I downloaded the latest HP drivers for 10.9-didn't help
    3)  Tried to use the separate HP Scan application-no luck; couldn't fine the computer (even though I have been printing regularly)
    4)  Based on the HP problem solution posting (which seems a bit out of date), tried to uninstall the software and reinstall; the uninstall would not complete, although it did delete all of my printers.
    It appears that it is finally time to abandon HP for printers, if they can't keep up with Apple's releases.

    Hi amaltz,
    I understand you are having an issue with the scan software working with Mavericks. I can't help you with this. My suggestion is to completely remove all HP software from the computer and reinstall. Follow the instructions below to resolve the issue.
    Scrub
    Open the Applications folder > HP or Hewlett Packard folder > HP Uninstaller
    Click continue, click on one of the printers in the list.
    Hold down Control, Option and Command
    While holding the three buttons down, Click uninstall.
    Reset Printing System
    Click the Apple icon (     ), and then click  System Preferences.
    In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan  dialog box opens.
    Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type the correct Name  and Password.
    Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
    Repair Disk Permissions (I know many of you have done this but because we have now done a scrub it is good measure to ensure non of your permissions differ)
    On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
    Double-click Disk Utility.
    Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
    Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
    Once the repair is complete, restart the computer.
    Restart the computer.
    Now you will have a fresh start and be able to reinstall the software. Please let me know if this resolves the issue you are experiencing. If it does not, I will gladly follow up.
    Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.
